However, he finds quickly that things aren't quite so simple as he thought, and he'll need to do more than drive well to survive the competition.The English dub, up to episode 23 in Season 2, is available, along with the original Malaysian, on YouTube. Netflix also has Season 1, comprised of the show's first 13 episodes, circa early 2019. | |

Prior to that, we have Lap 7, which reveals that the Rimba Grand Prix is rigged, as Miles had suspected for some timenote This was likely one of the biggest reasons why he didn't want Tag to be a professional racer. It's also implied that Tag's Disappeared Dad didn't want him in the RGP either. | |

| Rimba Racer (Animation) / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment: After faking his death, Tag's father Riq spent the last thirteen years trying to take down King and the Ringmasters without letting his wife or child know that he was still alive. It was justified in "A Lesson in History". Had he informed them, he would only end up helping his enemies hurt the people he cares about. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: Axle's Hyperspeed move gives his car a gargantuan burst of speed at the cost of maneuverability, making it ill-suited for most of the tracks in the series which are obtuse in structure and loaded with a multitude of very sharp turns. | |

| Rimba Racer (Animation) / int_3114c1e5 | comment |
Ramming Always Works: Plenty of that going on. Krom and Wrecks' cars are designed for ramming, when Krom uses his "special move" armor plating covers the windshield and the vehicle sprouts vibrating spikes. While Wrecks' Atlas actually rears up and heats up a "horn" at the end of the hood. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Rimba Racer (Animation) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: The Lunar Shadow's Shadow Drift mode doesn't boost its speed, armors its chases, or launch any sort of weapon, but instead improves its maneuverability on top of creating a vapor trail behind it to hamper the visibility of her pursuers. And while the smoke can only be deployed once, like the Heavy Metal's Side-Swipe and the Atlas' Stampede, the transformation can be maintained for the rest of the race which is a godsend on the more treacherously twisted tracks. | |

Flat Character | |
| Rimba Racer (Animation) / int_3d5c5deb | comment |
Flat Character: OoAa and Cuckoo among the Season 1 cast, and an interesting example of Tropes Are Tools regarding the concept of a Flat Character. While they don't really develop and progress from how they are introduced in episode 2, they still manage to work just fine, successfully showing that they don't need to be more than what they started off as. From a sense of pragmatism, this also meant they were excellent choices to allow for the replacements of two of the three Season 2 newcomers. Season 2's Xeno, who is similar to both OoAa and Cuckoo (in being eccentric, even by RGP standards, being a loner among the racers, outside Pike and Vyxx for rather obvious reasons, for his choice of vehicle style, essentially a bubble on wheels like Cuckoo's, and for only speaking gibberish to the viewers ears like OoAa does), plays with this Trope. Like OoAa and Cuckcoo, he doesn't really develop beyond his basic introduction, and also like the aforementioned duo, he fulfills his role swimmingly in spite of that. But unlike Cuckcoo and OoAa, we do get hints and pieces of his backstory, and get enough of a sense of Xeno over time to learn that he has an underscored but present sadistic side to him, just like Pike and Vyxx's more overt sadism. Xeno isn't quite the odd one out among his group as he initial appears. | |

| Rimba Racer (Animation) / int_44fc28e8 | comment |
Honor Before Reason: In spite of having just learned that King can disable his car at any time, Meelo tries to defy him during the ninth episode's race by attempting to win on a very dangerous avalanche-laden course where the slightest malfunction or wrong move can lead to mortal peril. Meika manages to talk him down, citing that it's a nigh-suicidal act of rebellion that won't accomplish anything and he's better off surviving to fight King some other way. Likewise, Axle refuses to turn on King in spite of knowing of how corrupt and wicked he is, because more than anything, he pledged his loyalty to the man early in his career and he never goes back on his word. | |

Incredibly Obvious Bug: Bugs in this universe are half-dollar-sized, round devices that blinks in a color apparently of the user's choice, and attach to devices, even monitors, without having to actually be plugged into anything, despite data being stored on standard USB flash drives in other scenes. They are, unsurprisingly, found pretty quickly. The second time one is used, however, it's more forgivable as it's only for a second and only to erase the contents of one file folder. | |

Hero Looking for Group | |
| Rimba Racer (Animation) / int_879a3fda | comment |
Hero Looking for Group: After finding out that the Rimba Grand Prix is rigged, Tag forms a team with four allies. Tag is a hot-headed newbie to the races, and constantly aims to win every race, but is kept safe and in check by his older mechanic and father figure, Miles. His fellow teammates are Sonny, whose large frame and larger car do a lot of the heavy lifting, Meelo, the socially awkward tech genius, and Meika, who is the most feminine and socially-active of the group. The team stays at five members until the later half of the first season, where Tamira joins them to work against her former employer. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Rimba Racer (Animation) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: Lap 8: "Versus". The Ripper is totaled and Sonny is put in a coma. Prior to that, we have Lap 7, which reveals that the Rimba Grand Prix is rigged, as Miles had suspected for some timenote This was likely one of the biggest reasons why he didn't want Tag to be a professional racer. It's also implied that Tag's Disappeared Dad didn't want him in the RGP either. For season 2, Lap 19: Meika's status as a spy is discovered, causing her relationship with her "friends" to become strained. | |

Unstoppable Force Meets Immovable Object: Wrecks' Atlas is the Unstoppable Force and Krom's Heavy Metal is the Immovable Object which is reflected in each vehicle's special ability. None of the other cars can win or match them in a melee and when they do finally clash against each other in the season 1 finale it results in mutual destruction. | |

Righteous Rabbit: Torres is supposedly informed about everything King does, but she appears to be out of the loop where the Ringmasters are concerned, making her genuinely innocent in that regard. They even make her a brief Red Herring as a mole, only to reveal that, no, she wasn't really privy to his every move. She also provides what little help she can in getting Tag back into the team, though she has no obvious motive to do so beyond wanting a good show. | |

The two of them give it their all the following morning anyway with Ooaa managing to eke out a Dark Horse Victory that wins them the race if not the competition. | |

Shout-Out: At one point, after obtaining something plot significant, comes the line "So much trouble for something so small!" Given what Meika is doing at that moment, the fact that it's spoken by Boromir in the original serves as foreshadowing. Star Wars is also quoted at one point: "You're all clear, kid! Now let's blow this thing and go home!" One of Sunny's video games is Moose Effect. | |
